Kim is down to earth and very professional. She is stealthy - didn't notice her climbing everywhere to get that perfect photo! She made us feel comfortable and at ease. She's hands on and will assist with anything. Don't know how to put a boutonniere on your brother or bussle your dress? Don't worry, she's got you covered! She knew all the best places to take photos at Emerald Lake and the Natural Bridge. She had recommendations for other vendors that would work with what we wanted (cake, flowers). Very flexible in her packages. We received a few teaser pictures the next day to share with friends, family (or social media) and they are amazing. Can't get over how amazing she is at what she does!

Engagement shoot
Kim was absolutely amazing and flexible to work with! We had never done a photo shoot before and didn’t really know what to do. Kim managed to turn our awkward and nervous selves into very natural looking and stunning photos. We were able to hop into her car and explore a bit of Banff while looking for locations to shoot at. We’re so pleased and would recommend her a million times over!

The best photographer you could ask for!
We used Kim for our elopement in Banff in February 2019, and the whole experience was just amazing. I started talking to her about a year before our date, and throughout the year she was always willing to give suggestions and answers to the many questions that I had. We had never been to Banff, so Kim helped us out with location and advice as to what and what not to do on the day. Working with her was a breeze, we were both very comfortable, and she did a great job at keeping us going in -15 degrees celsius :) She even suggested a 2nd location towards the end of our shoot, and those photos are just so amazing. Just like all the reviews of Kim online that I had read, everything was perfect! I would absolutely recommend her to any future bride planning on getting married in the area. You won't be disappointed!

Kim is Spectacular
Kim went above & beyond our expectations to make our wedding everything we ever dreamed of & more! As soon as I emailed her to take on our special day, she emailed back quickly after- never hard to get a response from. She was very prompt to arrive to our venue & even worked with us shortly after hours to get that last picture perfect shot. Not only were WE in love with her patience, efficency, drive, and personable demeanor but so were all are family and friends. She got so many of our photos done in a very timely matter and we couldn't be more thrilled with her final product. We will be back to use her services in the near future. If you are on the hunt to finding Thee BEST photographer for your special day- don't hesitate to contact Kim Payant. We promise you, you will not be disappointed.

Amazing wedding photographer
Working with Kim was a dream! She was so well organized and knew exactly what would work for everyone. We were also so impressed at her attention to detail, not to mention how quickly she managed to know everyone's names! We just got our photos back and I can't stop staring at them. We 100% recommend Kim Payant.
